Passion for the Presence

In Psalm 84, the psalmist describes the amazing feeling of being in the presence of God. They state that they would rather spend one day in God's courts, than spend 1,000 days elsewhere. But for us, the question is how do we develop this passion for God's presence? Dave Brown explores this question in week 10 of our study of the Psalms.

What the Lord Requires

In the book of Micah, we find the prophet burdened for the sins of Israel and seeking God's favor and forgiveness. What he receives from God is the simple word that what the Lord requires is that we act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with Him. Dave Brown explores this passage and shares the context of the time in which it was written to illuminate what happens when we sacrifice justice on the altar of safety, security, and peace.

The Good Shepherd

There is so much power and deeper meaning behind Jesus' statement "I Am the Good Shepherd." It was intended to correct and challenge the religious elite of that time; and to comfort and encourage Jesus' followers then and today. We are sheep, and we have a Good Shepherd in Jesus. Dave Brown explores this deep and powerful meaning in week 4 of our I Am series.
